Broken EV charger, broken fridge, needs rehab

Booked them over others specifically because they noted EV charger as an amenity and we are on a long trip. EV charger was not working and they didn’t know when it would be fixed. Interiors need an upgrade. Fridge didn’t work (regardless of how the fridge switch was flipped), so we had to toss the food we bought.
